    Losing saves after crash

    Hallo,

    Yesterday i played far cry 5 singleplayer. When out of nowhere my game crashed. I was automattically put to the mainmenu. Here i tried to start the singleplayergame again. but right away i got the same crash. I then opend the arcade mode this worked fine. I even got level 8 from 0. Today i started far cry 5 again. There was no crash this time but when i joined the game i spawned at the place i left the day before. but al my perks where gone also everything i bought. And the weird this was that my achievements where the same. Also when i went into arcade i was level 4 instead of 8. maybe somebody here can help me with this problem.

    Greetings,
    Jellonie

    Hello Jellonie,

    I'm sorry to hear that this has occurred.

    Just to confirm, you have all other progress in the game you're just missing your perks and unlocks? So the story is in the same place?

    Did you close the game properly before the crash and did you give Uplay enough time to sync before closing it or turning off your PC?

    Thank you

    Yes, my progress in the story is the same. Also i have all my achievements but i dont have the point to buy the perks. And when the game crashed i was somewhere in the hills where i random landed my plane. And when i started the game the day after the crash i spawned at the exact same place and the plane i landen was also at the same spot as when it crashed. And after the crash i wen't into arcade and after that i normaly closed the game before turning off my pc. i hope this clears things up.

    Greeting,
    Jellonie

    Have you looked into restoring your uPlay cloud save? I'm not sure how to do it, but that might be one option. Another is to download a trainer/cheat where you can give yourself back the perks and weapons you had. Then turn off the cheat.

    Try the steps in this FAQ to restore the save from the cloud.

    I would advise against the use of a trainer or cheats as the game has anti cheat and multiplayer elements, this could result in losing access to the game.

    hallo everybody,

    I tried the suggestions but they did not work. because of this i stopped playing for a while.
    But today i cleaned my laptop and when i started far cry again some things where back.
    Like my unlucked characters and in the shop i could buy my unlucked guns. But the main problem is
    that all my perks are still gone. i got just win them back but my achvements i got are completed.
    But the point you get to invest in perks are gone so i cant get them al back. so the money for the guns is not a problem there are a lot of ways i could solve that.
    but is there something posible to get my perks back.

    sorry for my bad english

    greetings Jellonie
